You still haven't got it, have you? We HAVEN'T any money! We're broke, bust, bankrupt. Any money we spend we've borrowed and will have to pay back.
The private sector has lost jobs, accepted reduced wages and pensions( or lost them altogether).Why does the public sector feel they should be immune to the problems this country has and be able to carry on with their guaranteed jobs, early retirement, inflation proof pensions etc.? Even their salaries are now better, on average, than the private sector.
What caused this mess is history but we're all in it together. There's a lot of pain to be felt and no one should feel they have a right to be immune to it. Especially when someone else will have to fund it.
